Webinar
On Thursday, July 29, the Environmental Protect Agency (EPA) hosted a webinar to demonstrate the “Power Plants and Neighboring Communities” web resource. This webpage includes interactive maps and supporting materials that combine information on air pollution emitted by fossil fuel-fired power plants with key demographical data on nearby communities. The Power Plants and Neighboring Communities web resource advances the Biden-Harris administration’s commitment to environmental justice by empowering the public and policymakers with information and tools to better understand the disproportionate impacts of air pollution in overburdened communities.
Speakers:
- Joe Goffman, Acting Assistant Administrator for the Office of Air and Radiation, EPA
- Reid Harvey, Director, Clean Air Markets Division, EPA
- Travis Johnson, Clean Air Markets Division, EPA
